As always, SPD will be first on scene… securing the field before Fire arrives. 😎🚓
We’ve heard Fire has been “training hard,” but carrying hoses doesn’t exactly prepare you for fastballs. 👀🔥

101 Years Ago Today...⚾️
On May 12, 1925, the very first pitch was thrown on these grounds — then called Reservoir Park — by none other than the Commissioner of Baseball himself, Kennesaw Mountain Landis. That pitch didn’t just start a game… it started a legacy.

For a full century, this field has seen generations of players chase their dreams, fans fill the stands with cheers, and the spirit of baseball thrive right here in the heart of Springfield.

From its earliest days to today, this ballpark has been more than a diamond — it’s been a community gathering place, a launchpad for legends, and a living, breathing part of Springfield’s story.

Happy Mother’s Day!
